‘No need to cry over spilt milk’ say British inventing duo

From our Press Office

Ok, so a milk spillage probably isn’t something we’d get upset about. But what if the liquid spilled was expensive, harmful, or even toxic – it could be a different story! 

That’s why two brothers from Malvern in Worcestershire have designed and developed the Easy Fill safety spout, an innovative, cost effective spout for domestic, commercial and marine use that prevents spillages from 99% of all cans.

Fuel is increasingly expensive and extremely flammable, which means that spillages are costly, as well as dangerous. The spout’s creators, brothers Richard and Jim George, wanted to create a simple spout that could be attached to any 1 gallon can, and used to dispense petrol and diesel safely, and without spillages.

The spout is also great for pouring other types of liquid; screen wash, cleaning chemicals and even water.

They’ve designed the shape of the spout to ensure that liquid can be poured surge-free, and the simple screw attachment makes it easy to connect, as well as secure. The design also means that you can pour as much, or as little as you need – the spout automatically cuts off the flow when the desired level is reached.

The British tradition of innovative ideas, made famous by inventors like Trevor Baylis and James Dyson, is a real inspiration for the two brothers. Richard commented ‘It’s great to see British inventors challenging conventional design and creating products that are simple but effective. We want to continue this tradition’.

Not only are the designers of this invention British, but the production of the new product has been achieved entirely within the UK – from design to manufacture.

The Easy Fill safety spout costs £4.49. See it in action here.
